Quality guarantee
With years of experience, we have developed our own methodologies:
PMR Brand Image – brand image research methodology
In order to study the root sources of creation of a brand image, we analyse all the attributes of
the brand by learning consumers’ opinions, interviewing market experts and trendsetters, and
studying internet word of mouth. We identify the elements of the brand image that have the
greatest impact on the choices made by consumers, and recommend the most promising
directions for shaping brand image.
PMR Medical Panel – we have a constantly growing panel of doctors
The members of this panel are doctors of various specialisations who have agreed to take
part in our medical and pharmaceutical marketing research. Our database contains more than
5,000 doctors and other healthcare employees. Using a pre-recruited panel of doctors to
conduct research projects in the medical sector cuts costs and reduces the time the study
takes.
PMR Market Insight – methodology designed to support the whole process of producing
sector reports and analyses
Analyses are conducted on the basis of information from existing sources: statistics, sector
data (the specialist press, the internet), general and official sources, and our own databases,
as well as independent primary research. The range of sources we use is tailored to each
project individually.
